Put the command

	sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1

somewhere into your /etc/netstart.  (It will be available as a
/etc/sysconfig-controlled option in later releases.)

The sample files have been taken from the stand-alone Taylor UUCP
package.  It's an integral part of {Free,Net}BSD and Linux however, so
you don't have to compile it yourself.

For more information than what's already contained in the sample files
under /etc/uucp, run the command

	info uucp

(Unfortunately, under 2.0.5, the arrow keys didn't work.  You have to
navigate by ^N/^P.)
